What surprises people is how much green space a 46-acre subdivision can actually hold—Forest Hills Gardens doesn't feel cramped or cookie-cutter. Homes here run around $416K, and the whole place has room to breathe with trees and wetlands woven through, including Carl Creek Wetlands Preserve just a mile away for actual exploring. You're close enough to grab groceries in under two minutes by car (18 stores within two miles) but far enough out that you're not hearing the bustle.
